Chapter 426: It’s Going to be Too Late
Ling Chenyu stood there dumbfounded, frozen like a wooden chicken.She and Fourth Brother... cancel the engagement?
Mrs. Ling was already in a panic, her face mournful as she said, "No, this matter has nothing to do with Chenyu. It was me, I pawned it as a gambling stake, it’s my fault..."
Madam Feng raised her elegant brows slightly, displeased as she interrupted, "Is this how the Ling Family treats the Feng Family’s heirloom? As a gambling stake?"
The Feng Family Master’s face suddenly darkened severely, slamming a palm onto the marble table, his anger erupting, "Is this the Ling Family’s attitude?!"
Ling Chenyu’s tears fell like rain, sobbing as she said, "Uncle Feng, it’s not like that. Our family never looked down on the Feng Family. Rest assured, I will definitely find the heirloom, I definitely will..."
Ling Chenyu cried hysterically, almost to the point of fainting.
The Feng Family Master snorted coldly, flicked his sleeves, stood up, and walked outside.
Madam Feng walked over to Su Li with a smile, placed the Heart of the Ocean in Su Li’s hands, and said in a meaningful soft voice, "Good child, thank you."
If it weren’t for Su Li being trapped at the Ling Family today, perhaps... that person wouldn’t have rushed here anxiously, right?
After speaking, Madam Feng smiled gently and left.
Su Li stood there dumbfounded, staring at the weighty Heart of the Ocean in her hand, and then at Madam Feng’s gentle back, a trace of deep thought appearing in her eyes.
Sixth Master Feng glared harshly, throwing out a comment, "Old Seven, just wait till I go back and have a son too, don’t think that you have a secret..."
Feng Huaijin’s complexion changed dramatically, immediately shouting, "Shut up!"
Sixth Master Feng, yelled at by Feng Huaijin, shrank his shoulders and dejectedly followed the Feng Family Master’s direction.
Su Li glanced at Feng Huaijin suspiciously, what was his Sixth Brother saying that went unfinished?
Suddenly, a string of music came from Su Li’s pocket — "Every morning, the first thing, is to cheer yourself on..."
Feng Ciye, sitting on the sofa, chuckled lightly, amusement deep in his eyes as he looked at her.
Su Li smiled awkwardly, took out her phone to turn off the alarm, and tugged on Feng Huaijin’s sleeve, whispering, "Let’s go quickly, we’re going to be late!"
She had specifically set a phone alarm to remind herself half an hour before the meteor shower came.
Feng Huaijin looked at her naturally tugging his sleeve, involuntarily lifted the corners of his mouth, and reached out to hold her wrist as they walked out.
The gathering of the two families thus ended unhappily, the crowd in the hall dispersed.
Feng Ciye walked alone in the Ling Family’s small garden, looked at the night-blooming osmanthus, bunches of small flowers emanating a faint fragrance.
Feng Ciye stood under a tree, watching from afar as Su Li happily got into Feng Huaijin’s car, urging him to drive back faster.
Feng Ciye reached out his jade-like finger, gently plucking a small, white flower above his head, murmured to himself with a hint of sarcasm, "In this world, only you and that child know his birthday, who even knows when my birthday is?"
Finally, someone remembered Feng Huaijin’s birthday, yet there has never been anyone who knows his.
Feng Ciye caressed the tiny flower petals in his palm, his gaze somewhat deep and contemplative.
Another slender finger took out a slightly smaller Heart of the Ocean from the pocket of his suit pants, recalling Ling Chenyu’s tearful cries saying she would definitely find the heirloom.
Fingers gently touching the slightly cool blue diamond, Feng Ciye’s lips curved into a thin smile.
It’s impossible to find it.
Even if she could find it, the engagement would still be canceled.
